Should we have universal education?
Should we have universal education? Why, of course! When did it start? In Scotland, universal education started in 1561. In England and Wales, the Elementary Education Act (Forster's Education Act)was passed in 1870, where children of 5-12 had to recieve education. Why did it start? Why do we need universal education? We need universal education because then we would have the basic knowledge to live through our lives without hardships. If people recieve education, then they would learn to think more critically, and figure things, solve more problems by themselves. Education leds to revolutions (Like the French Revolution), which is a bad effect, but thinking on the bright side, they also had the Enlightenment, and had more and more people thinking and improving their society! Also, universal education is tied with fate. A little education can change peoples' lives! In alot of places in Southern Asia, poor families are tricked by the sly and wealthy businessmdn and sell their children in exchange for money. However, the families hardly know what would happen to their children. The children who were sold often work harsh jobs, requiring heavy labor. Many others get decieved to abandon their country to work in another. Which most of the time, is worse, where jobs are very difficult and harsh. These people are in desparate need of education. They need to know, that one imprudent choice, can change their lives forever. Universal education is very, extremely, and infinitely essential.
